Other claims from this paper (8)
- Intervention effect Bio-regulator dips significantly improved firmness retention.
- Intervention effect Bio-regulator dips reduced physiological loss in weight relative to control during 30-day storage.
- Intervention effect Bio-regulator treatment checked changes in TSS, acidity and ascorbic acid during storage.
- Observation Untreated pear fruits had a faster conversion rate.
- Intervention effect Salicylic acid slowed respiration rate in stored pear fruits.
- Intervention effect Ca-EDTA slowed respiration rate in stored pear fruits.
- Intervention effect Treated pear fruits lasted 30 days, versus 20 days in controls.
- Recommendation The authors concluded bio-regulators can extend pear shelf life with better physicochemical quality.
